Cycle Aware Wellington is hiring a part-time campaign manager. We need a person to run an effective campaign for quality cycle lanes.
This will be a significant year for cycling in Wellington. In 2013 we voted for a bike-friendly council and have upped the cycling budget to $4.3 million. The next major project is the Island Bay - CBD route.
Making sure this is a high-quality cycling route is our key task, as it will set the tone for the future. There are significant stakeholder issues to resolve. Without strong community support we risk getting a poor quality cycling route.
Tasks
Recruit supporters, build a database, build relationships with stakeholder groups, fundraise, create publicity materials, and advocate through social media, news media, and meetings.
Manage CAW volunteers for this campaign.
The campaign manager will be supported by the CAW Committee and CAN Project Manager. The contract is for 15 hours/week for 12 weeks, negotiable.
Contact Patrick Morgan patrick@can.org.nz tel 04 210 4967 by 21 February.
